A new Digimon video game, titled Digimon Story: Time Stranger, has seemingly leaked through GameStop just before tonight’s PlayStation State of Play presentation. The leak was first spotted by Gematsu, which shared store links for pre-ordering the game on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Although the GameStop listings do not include any images or gameplay details, the timing suggests that an official announcement could be imminent.
Sony’s upcoming State of Play is set to feature 40 minutes of content, leaving ample room for new game reveals. Given the recent leak of Digimon Story: Time Stranger, fans are hopeful that the digital monster series will make an appearance during the event.
The Digimon Story series has a rich history, starting with the original Digimon Story for the Nintendo DS in the mid-2000s. Since then, numerous installments have been released across various platforms. Notable recent titles include Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth (2015), Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth – Hacker’s Memory (2017), and the Complete Edition that bundled both Cyber Sleuth games in 2019.
In these games, players enter the world of Digimon, forming bonds with monsters and engaging in RPG battles. While franchise producer Kazumashu Habu teased a new Story game in 2022, fans have been eagerly awaiting a new installment. Although games like Digimon Survive have helped bridge the gap, the potential reveal of Digimon Story: Time Stranger could signal the end of the long wait for a fresh entry in the beloved series.
